#BibleStudy Questions from James Ch 1 on 3-15-2020

Unless you are an alien intercepting transmissions from Earth, you are aware of the PANIC caused by the Covid-19 virus. I'm not certain when my class will meet again. As soon as I know more, I'll post the details.

For as many Sundays as needed we will be exploring the context and content of the practical content the Letter from James. 

If you followed my blogs on Hebrews and Acts, you recall the questions discussed are posted on Monday and a sampling of the discussion of each question is posted the following Wednesday. That will continue with minor cosmetic adjustments.

If this is your first experience with my blogs, I invite you to copy and paste the questions into a word.docx and fill in blanks or answer questions before next week. We rarely do more than 6 or 8 questions in a given week. 

I hope you'll explore this practical book along with us.

I'll post our answers on Wednesday. 

Chapter 1

Verse 12
What other promises encourage joy among trials? 

Word study
TEMPTATION, TRIAL, and TESTING all come from the same Greek word-group, but they are not the same. 
TRIALEx 20:20, Deut 8:2,16; 
TEMPTATIONMatt 4:1.
TESTINGHeb 2:10,18, 4:15-16, James 1:2-4. Job 1:6-2:10, 42:1-6.

WE GOT THIS FAR THIS WEEK.


Chapter 1

Verses 13-18
